I Love You Too

"I'm your Mom. I'm always going to have things to say about the choices you are making."

Maya rolled her eyes. They were the only two left in Topanga's and closing up. "That's fine Mom, but I hate how you don't believe in me. First, you were against my marriage and now you think my career choice I'm making is a mistake."

"Maya, you're dropping out of school-"

"To do what I love and I planned to go back."

Katy sighed. "You don't know if you will go back because things happen in life"

"I'm not pregnant," Maya pointed out, already knowing what road her mom was going down.

"Yet. You're not pregnant yet."

Maya shook her head as she wiped down a table. "I'm not going to get pregnant."

"You don't know that," Katy countered, placing a hand on her hip. "Look at Riley," she pointed out. "No one expected her to get pregnant. Can you honestly look me in the eye and tell me you haven't had a pregnancy scare?"

"Yes, I can look you in the eye like I'm doing right now and tell you I haven't had a pregnancy scare. I'm on the pill and Josh and I have been safe. You need to relax. I'm okay. I'm doing what I love and I'm married to the man I love. I know I'm young but I've always been an old soul and I grew up fast," Maya said, trying to end the conversation. She was over defending herself to her mother.

Maya went back to wiping down tables as her mother went back to cleaning the counter.

"I just want what is best for you," Katy broke the silence, her eyes once again on her daughter. "I think you keep doing things in the spur of the moment and not thinking long term. What happens when you start to regret your decisions in life?"

Maya stopped and glared over in her mother's direction. "If you are saying that I'm going to regret my marriage-"

"I'm not saying you are going to regret your marriage but you two have a very long road ahead of you."

"And we know that. We knew what we were getting in to the day we got married. Mom, I love Josh with all of my heart-"

"I know you do. I don't doubt your love for Josh for one moment nor do I doubt Josh's love for you but you do understand marriage could have waited so you could experienced more in life before settling down."

"I understand that but that's not what I want and that's something you need to understand. I love that I'm married and I get to experience life with Josh," she stressed. "Just because I'm married doesn't mean I don't get to experience life or do things I want. I get to do it with my best friend at my side every step of the way. I love we get to see the world together and build our lives together."

"I hope you and Josh make it. I really do. I want you to be happy and I know he makes you happy but I was married-"

"I'm not you and Josh is definitely not Kermit and we don't have a Maya."

"Yet."

"Oh my God," Maya ran her hands through hair, frustrated. "We literally just went through this not even five minutes ago," she snapped. "How many times do I have to say I'm not having a baby anytime soon? I only said what I said over the Matthews's because I knew Riley was pregnant. I know right now is not a good time to have a baby. I'm going to focus on my YouTube channel and growing it bigger and Josh doesn't want children anytime soon because he wants to concentrate on becoming a lawyer so you don't have to worry about us having a child anytime soon but I did mean it when I said when it comes to the time we have children it's mine and Josh's decision and no one else's that includes your's. You will have to respect that."

"I know it is but I'm only speaking out my concerns. I know it's your two's choice, but I just want you to think it through before bringing a child into the world. You two are still young and have a lot on your shoulders. I think the next decisions in your lives need to be sat down and talked about and really thought through and I'm not just talking about children."

Maya stared over at her mother, "Mom, I'm fine" she tried to reassured her mother again, knowing her mother was scared for her. "You don't have to worry about me. I know you don't like some of the decisions I'm making but they are what I want and what I feel is best for me. I know my career choice is risky but life is about taking risk and I have a wonderful husband who has my back. I promise I'm going to go back to school especially if this doesn't work out like I want it to. I promised Josh and I'm promising you. Believe it or not Josh and I do talk things through. He is my husband. I would never do anything he wasn't behind just like he wouldn't do anything I wasn't behind. We talk about things. Conversation is the most important part of any relationship and that is something Josh and I make sure we have. We both know there are going to be ups and downs and disagreements in our marriage but we are both are in it one-hundred percent. We want forever together."

Katy nodded, staring at her daughter. "I believe you can make it. In both your marriage and in your career," she told her softly, making Maya smile. "I watched some of your videos and you are talented. I even read some of the comments and saw people love you. I really do approve of Josh. He is my son-in-law and I'm proud he is because I trust him with you. I know he loves you and will do anything for you and I know he makes you happy. Just so you know, it's not that I'm against your marriage because I knew you two would end up married. I knew he was the one for you. I saw the way he looked at you and how you looked at him. I was against the timing of your marriage and the way you got married. I wish you would have waited so you could have experience more life but like you said I can't pick how you experience life and if you want to experience it with the love of your life at your side then that's how you should experience it. I love you Maya and I'll always support you even if I believe you are doing the wrong thing."

Maya smiled. She walked over wrapping her arms around her mom. "I love you, mom."

"I love you too."

XOXOXOX

"I was thinking would could put a crib over here," Topanga said, gesturing to the other side of Riley's bed.

Riley nodded, biting her lip as she sat on her bed, watching her mom come up with room ideas to fit her baby in her old childhood bedroom. "Are you ashamed?"

"What?!" Topanga snapped, her head jerking to look at her daughter so fast she was surprised she didn't have whip lash.

"I understand if you are."

Topanga walked over to sit next to her daughter. "I'm not ashamed of you," she told her, taking her daughter's hand and squeezing it.

"You should be-"

"No, I shouldn't. Riley, I'm proud of you. No, this is not what I pictured for you, but you are handling it. When I married your father I know some people won't mention were upset because it is not how they pictured it for us but we handled it and here we are just like you will handle it."

Riley rolled her eyes, "Handling it? I'm pregnant and I'm moving back in with my parents-"

"So? You are handling it. You're not running from it and you are doing what you have to for your baby and in case you have forgotten we wanted you to. We want to help. There is nothing wrong with getting help, especially when you need it and someone is offering. I know this changes everything but things happen and it's how you deal with them."

Riley nodded, feeling the tears start to roll down her cheeks. "I just feel I let you and dad down."

Topanga wrapped her arms around her daughter. "You didn't let us down."

"Yes. I did. You don't have to protect me."

"Riley," Topanga sighed, pulling away and wiping her daughter's tears away. "When you first told us you were pregnant, yes, I was disappointed and heartbroken. It's hard to watch your baby have a baby, especially since you and Lucas are so young and not prepared but that's why I'm here sitting next to you and supporting you. You are my baby and you are having my grandchild and I'm going to help you every way I can until you are on your feet and can take care of you and this baby."

Riley stared at her mother and never has been more thankful in life. "Thank you," she murmured, laying her head on her mother's shoulder. "I'm so lucky to have you and dad."

"We are lucky to have you as a daughter."

Riley gave her mother a small smile and wonder what she did to be so lucky to have her mom and dad. "I love you, mom."

"I love you too."

I hope everyone enjoyed this. Please leave me your thoughts!
